As the Presenting Sponsor, Bel Air Lending was honored to help make this incredible night possible. The room overflowed with worship, heartfelt stories, and overwhelming generosity as supporters united to raise more than $544,000 to bring Bibles, discipleship, and the hope of Christ to incarcerated men and women.

It was powerful to witness so many people come together for one mission: to advance God’s Kingdom and share His Word to prison inmates not only in the United States but also around the world.

We were deeply moved by the stories shared throughout the evening. Pastor Jonnel inspired us with encouragement. Brett’s testimony reminded us of the transforming power of grace (photo 1 of 3 below), Darryl Strawberry, MLB Legend, challenged us with truth and hope (photo 2 of 3 below), and Matt Hammitt led us in worship that filled the room with gratitude and praise (photo 3 of 3 below).



At Bel Air Lending, we believe generosity is one of the greatest ways we can live out our faith. Supporting ministries like Prison Alliance allows us to invest in eternal impact, bringing the light of Christ into some of the darkest places.

We are deeply grateful for all that God accomplished through this event and for everyone who helped make it possible. Through the faithfulness and generosity of so many, thousands of incarcerated men and women will have the opportunity to experience the life-changing hope, grace, and redemption found in Jesus Christ in the year ahead.




To God be the glory! 💙
